Once upon a time, Studio MDHR and iam8bit thought it would be a really nifty idea to create an art print inspired by the universe of Cuphead — but no ordinary art print, mind you! In collaboration with prolific Japanese horror punk rockers, Balzac, this art print would be edgy and wild, showcasing the characters of Cuphead, as well as the band’s iconic “Skullman” mascot, like never seen before (Evil Cuphead, Vile Mugman — oh my!). As for the print itself — no ordinary production process would do!

Instead, this is a traditional ‘Mokuhanga’ Woodblock print special - a far more complicated process than popular screenprinting or giclee techniques. Dating back many centuries, ‘Mokuhanga’ woodblock printing adheres to an ancient methodology that involves meticulously carving detailed artwork into wood, with each color layer composed as a completely separate piece. This is a very special and rare opportunity to add a unique Cuphead masterwork to your collection. This special print is lovingly hand-crafted by woodblock craftsman Stephen Winiecki, featuring a brand-new colorway of the previously sold out edition.
